Jubbal Palace

Location

Jubbal Palace was the regal dwelling of the erstwhile Jubbal rulers of this hill station. Famed for its splendid and gorgeous architecture, this palace has been converted as a heritage spot recently.

An amazing citadel, which reminds of a fairy tale palace, Jubbal Palace is placed very prettily in the midst of hills. The Rana's abode is built in partially Chinese style, the lower portion consisting of sandstone, whereas the greater half is banded round with impassive colonnaded capped by suspended attics. The palace is noteworthy for the vast stacks of deodar timber used in its structure.

Designed by a French architect, the modern wing of the palace displays a curious blend of Indo and European styles. Its convoluted wooden ceilings are simply superb. Another imposing allure is the stunning display of ancient artilleries used by the royal families of Jubbal.
